Considerations
Dry hair is hair that does not have enough moisture and oil to maintain its normal sheen and texture.
Dry hair may result from too much washing, harsh detergents, a dry environment, inadequate diet, or underlying conditions, such as those due to malnutrition. (For example, kwashiorkor)
Dry, brittle hair may be a symptom of metabolic diseases such as hypothyroidism and Menkes kinky hair syndrome.
Common Causes
Excessive washing, harsh detergents or alcohols, excessive blow-drying
Environmental dryness
Anorexia nervosa
Malnutrition
Hypothyroidism
Hypoparathyroidism
Home Care
Shampoo less frequently -- perhaps only once or twice a week
Add conditioners
Avoid blow drying and harsh styling products
